Chapter 3

Arriving at the venue, I saw that the place was already packed with students and felt a bit self conscious.

Rebecca grabbed my hand and took me to a spot that was less crowded, for which I was grateful. We played numerous games and although I hate to admit it, it was fun.

I was happy when I saw Dimitri without any girls by his side, he was just talking with his male classmates and that helped to brighten my mood.

At one point, he stood with a guy and went to a place packed with trees. I felt that the place he went to will be the perfect place for my confession.

I hurriedly stood up to follow him but got lost somehow, I tried to find my way to Dimitri or back to Rebecca when I heard some sounds.

Not knowing what it was, I decided to find out. After following the voice I saw a scene that shocked my entire being.

There in front of me, was Dimitri who pinned the guy that followed him out to a tree and was currently kissing him.

The shock I felt was intense as I tried to convince myself that the image I was seeing wasn't real, but the painful truth was that it was as real as fuck.

Without knowing when I felt a tear rush out from my eyes and after that, it felt like a dam broke and I cried and cried.

I think Dimitri heard me because he broke free from the kiss and saw me while I was crying. Noticing his stare I stood up in an attempt to run but he caught up to me fast.

"Damn." He said as he stared at me. "What the fuck are you doing here char?". I couldn't stop the tears and just wailed as he directed me to were the party was.

Immediately I saw Rebecca, I broke free from him and ran to her. I went to hug her and as she patted my back not knowing what was going on, it suddenly came to me,

'Dimitri is gay, t..that means that I don't even have a chance with him. All because of my stupid gender.'

As that thought crossed my mind my tears became harder. Rebecca patted my back and asked "Do you wanna go home?" I didn't want my parents to see me like this so I said no.

She sighed and carried me to her own house. She took me to her room and placed me on the bed to rest. She took out my phone and called my mum, telling her that I was in her place.

Although my mum was a bit confused she agreed and the call ended. She sighed and after I calmed she patted my head and asked,

"Do you wanna talk about it?" Although I'm a corner of my mind I didn't want to but I knew I had to so I nodded then said "I..I had p..planned to confess to Dimitri today."

"I know, what happened when you went to confess, did that jackass reject you?". "N...no while I went there I found out a big truth."

She nodded patiently waiting for me to continue, then I said "D...Dimitri is gay." She was totally shocked when I said that and said "What?, How?, Oh my god, I am sorry for putting you through this."

I knew it was not her fault but remembering how that little fact shattered my heart made me want to cry. She didn't talk again and just patted my head.

There was a feeling of emptiness in my heart which was hard to curb, but after some minutes, I fell asleep with Rebecca beside me.
